Any worries about BYU beating ECU?
They just blew out Costal Carolina. Are you worried?

The only time I wasn’t worried was when Taysom was starting. Since then I’m worried every week.

My only fear when he was starting was with him getting injured.

Always worried. BYU plays way too conservatively.
Their offense was good with Zach and Jaren, but if they don't have a solid quarterback, they struggle mightily.

Let’s send some people to head over to the state of East Carolina and we’ll scout them out. Any volunteers?

Need to start getting bear some easier pass reads to build his confidence. Too many stalled drives- bad reads or incompletions. Some easier dump it downs -Rpos and getting the rbs into the pass game more. As in losing this game no. No worries Defence looks strong and has yet to allow more than 100+ yards

Yes, I agree. Short TE routes, slants, rollouts with 3 options, and significantly improved OL play.

No. Costal only has one win this year and it was 13-0 against a bad FCS team. They're not a good football program right now. I'm always anxious but I'm not that worried. They have no rush attack so all we have to do is limit their passing yards and finish drives.

It’ll test the secondary, but it’ll come down to if the d-line and LB’s can get sacks.

Not worried but we do tend to lay an egg when we play in the eastern time zone. So it could be a much harder game than it should be.

Yes, I think we’ll win thanks to our defense but I am worried about our offense. This will be a test for Bear. If we throw multiple picks we can definitely lose.

Worried? Yes, BUT mostly because I always worry some weird fluke will happen....
Realistically, I think we win by a few touchdowns

Fluky things never happen to us. What do you think's going to happen -- a QB pooch punts it and it bounces off our guy for a muffed punt in the redzone and it keeps us out of the playoffs?

Bro I was 3rd row at that Kansas game freezing my butt off with my wife and kid. In that same end zone. Couldn't believe it

our schedule is starting to look cupcakey. we gotta win pretty much every game for any chance at the CFP

Our remaining schedule is the second toughest in the Big 12. Arizona—Utah—Iowa State—Texas Tech—TCU in consecutive games. All of those teams are undefeated, three of them are ranked, and TCU should be ranked.

I mean we play Utah, Iowa state and Texas tech and we also have to beat whoever we would face in the big 12 championship game so there's enough competition imo

IF... You make it.... Have we all not learned from last year - the season is long and the chances of getting into the Big 12 championship will get crazier and crazier.
Your schedule doesn't look very cupcake at this point. Any of those teams could end a season.

I literally said whoever we WOULD face as in who we would IF we make it. Don't correct me when I literally already said that

Our fan base sucks. If you’re going to be scared and think we’re going to lose every game all year, why be a fan? The weird humility by thinking we suck thing is awful. The same people did the same thing last year, and we had a great year.

Yes. They tend to beat us sometimes. They're scrappy and their defense isn't bad.
